I have a Schema I am finishing up
to express 3D as XML (an evolution of VRML97)
http://www.xvrml.net/schemas/xVRML.xsd
in this Schema I declare a new complexType:
<xs:complexType name="groupingAndChildrenNodes">
<xs:sequence maxOccurs="unbounded" minOccurs="0">
<xs:choice>
<xs:element ref="Anchor"/>
<xs:element ref="Background"/>
[...]
</xs:choice>
</xs:sequence>
</xs:complexType>
I understand this as meaning
"a sequence of as many choices as you want
each choice made from the following list of possible choices"
so, for example, an element of type groupingAndChildrenNodes
could end up containing 2 Anchors and a Background and...
do I understand this correctly?
someone I was corresponding with was asserting
that this actually meant that any given choice from the list of choices
[say Anchor]
could be in a particular element of type groupingAndChildrenNodes
once and only once
thanks in advance for your help
